nagios only alerting 1 contact

[Stephen Patterson]

I have nagios (with postgres) set up with several defined contacts and
contactgroups, and have (until recently) for testing had it configured
to alert everything to nagiosadmin, and though I have changed it to
alert everything to several hostgroups it still continues to alert
evrything to nagiosadmin.

The notifications log lists all notifications for notify-by-email and
host-notify-by-email as having been only sent to nagiosadmin.  

I've checked over the config several times, and each hostgroup and
service is set to alert several contactgroups.


The configuration that I'm using is as follows, so any ideas?
# standard host template
define host {
        name                            default
        notifications_enabled           1
        event_handler_enabled           1
        flap_detection_enabled          0
        process_perf_data               1
        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    1
        max_check_attempts              5
        notification_interval           0       # don't send reminders
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            d,u,r
        check_command                   check-host-alive
